World: r3wp

So, can't you specify a minimum resize value to stop this?

There are bound to be a lot of bugs in it. Maybe I should set up 
a curecode for it.

and a SVN

No, the only way is a minimum size on the window.

Your well developed table style I guess is not ported ...

It's much the same resize code as Brian and I showed two years ago.

LIST-VIEW works fine in it. My internal 0.0.54 is adapted to it.

oh .. ok :)

but, this holds a possible replacement, one that is much better designed 
and way smaller.

No accordion style tab panels ??

:)

vertical tabs that collapse? that's probably possible to do.

I've got one in rebgui ... but it's all hard coded ... I wouldn't 
know how to generalise it.

maybe I can figure something out.

I think the basic style set people are looking for are those that 
are used in JS.

can you point to an image or example?

tabs ( accordions ), tables, grids

Sure ... let me find one

I see. Yours is quite advanced. My first try would be a simpler one, 
and we would have to see where we could go from there.

Probably a better example http://www.screencast.com/users/SynapseEMR/folders/Jing/media/fe4163c3-1388-45ce-a93c-c2799bf7b3dd

I was trying to emulate the Microoft Common User Interface  aka CUI

Microsoft

The problem with mine appears with lots of data as I don't use a 
face iterator but build everything in memory.

So, how would you compare your vid exxtensions with RebGui ?

I haven't done much of a comparison, but I think if you are relying 
on RebGui, it would not be wise to switch. Also I wouldn't market 
this as a separate, new toolkit, but as VID as it should be. RebGui 
is probably more stable. There are still plenty of things left to 
do here. Even though many of the things I've done here are very generic, 
it has primarily been designed to solve specific problems with some 
apps I've had to build a few months ago.

at least 9 months ago

I was wondering if someone were starting off from scratch .. better 
to use rebgui or your extension kit?

your second example looks simpler BTW.

that was an earlier demo

The thing I miss are drop and drag calendars, and an editable grid

It's hard to say. I don't want to steal any thunder from Ashley's 
work, as it's tremendously well done and obviously works in bigger 
scenarios. I guess it's a matter of trying the other if you don't 
like the first one you tried.

I've been thinking about generic drag and drop methods, but haven't 
reached a conclusion yet. If it is to be done, it should be done 
generally, so it's simple to apply to any style.

Just reading your announce and it seems you have concentrated more 
on the fundamentals with focus control, keyboard use

and data entry

You can get surprisingly far with that. :-) I've focused the most 
on that, yes.

Is there a way to "reset" the gui after bad resizing?

unfortunately not

(I'm open to ideas, though)

save all the flags and just reset them?

Anyway, you need to create your own group here for people to discuss 
your extension set :)

we have an old VID+ group :-)

nah, creating a new group. one sec.

VID+ was for R3

Back from training course. Read new VID message from  ML on my cellphone 
:-) I was very surprised, that nearly at the end of R2 lifestyle, 
where RebGUI is the king, something like that is coming.

I will be realistic - have not studied the styles yet, but from the 
style browser, I am very disappointed by the look :-( It really looks 
like Amiga 1.3, 25 yars old. Or some very old Unix. Who uses such 
plain buttons and field, with so basic borders? Or is there any skin 
system attached?


As for completness, still the most complete add-on kit for R2 VID 
is some 6 years or more old Romano Paolo Tenca's one - tabbing, grid, 
etc. supported ...

Pekr, read the docs.

Romano's kit was GPL ... had drag and drop between styles but no 
one could use it with that license.

Cyphre systray: great news!

Agreed.... this is the type of thing that gets people to use REBOL 
more.
